Dean's Message
Welcome to the Department of Mechanical Engineering at KIET. Established in 1999, the department has been committed to delivering quality education and fostering excellence in the field of Mechanical Engineering. Over the past two decades, we have steadily expanded our expertise in core mechanical domains, research, and interdisciplinary learning.
Our undergraduate program began with an intake of 30 students in 1999, which was progressively increased to 60 in 2001, 120 in 2006, and 180 in 2012, reflecting our growing capacity and demand. The department aims to equip students with strong technical knowledge, problem-solving abilities, employability skills, and an innovative mindset to address societal and industrial challenges.
With a distinguished record in both teaching and research, the department boasts state-of-the-art laboratories and research facilities. Continuous industry engagement through collaborative projects, industrial visits, expert talks, and discussions on emerging technologies helps create an environment that mirrors real-world engineering applications. To nurture hands-on learning and interdisciplinary interactions, the department conducts regular technical activities and supports student-led hobby clubs such as the SAE-KIET Collegiate Club and the KIET Design Club.
We have also established strategic collaborations with Mercedes-Benz India Ltd., BIESSEE INDIA, Automotive Skill Development Council (ASDC), and 3D Curiosity to enhance skill development initiatives. Our faculty members are academically accomplished, actively involved in research, serve on editorial boards of reputed journals, review scholarly articles, and contribute to national and international conferences, workshops, and seminars.
